FERRY ARRIVAL

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW IS

1. Bike rental location (if you reserve the bike).

2. The
ONLY ROAD/turn to the property is HERE

1. FERRY-TAXI (included in the ferry ticket)
Expectation: "The Ferry-taxi will drop me off directly at HyperLu because they said so"
Reality: NO. When you buy a ferry ticket and set your destination "HyperLu", the Ferry-taxi will drop you off at the Coconut Shop Resort (HERE), 1.3 km away from HyperLu.

If you don't want to reserve a motorbike and are ready to walk 1.3 km, from Coconut Shop turn to the secret road (500m paved road, 700 meters off-road right down the hill).

2. RENT A MOTORBIKE 
Expectation: "Renting a motorbike is simple. I can rent it at HYPERLU or COCONUT SHOP".
Reality: NO. 1. We don't rent bikes; 2. The closest bike rental from HyperLu is 3km away; 3. During the high season, many rental locations might not have bikes available or expensive.

Question: "I have reserved a bike. I know its location, how do I get to the bike rental location?"

3. NAVIGATING THE FERRY-TAXI
(ferry-to-property-taxi is free, BUT)
Expectation: "If I tell the Ferry-taxi driver my drop-off location, the taxi will... deliver, and I can relax until my destination."
Reality: NO. Drivers often drop passengers at the wrong locations.

DO AS FOLLOWS: Know your bike pick-up location. Exit Ferry-taxi at this location. As you approach your drop-off location: scream and knock on the driver's window until he stops the Ferry-taxi. Exit and go to pick up the bike.

Q: How do I know if the Ferry-taxi will not drive me the wrong way? 
EASY: There is only one main road on Koh Kood Island and Ferry-taxi will drive all of it, and 100% will drive past your desired location all you need is to jump off at your main road location.

4. HOST ASSISTANCE
Expectation: The host can assist all guests at any time.
Reality: Pretty much lol. BUT. Assistance must be arranged at least 2 hours in advance, ideally days in advance.

Assistance options:
Solo travelers: 50/50 chance I can pick you up from Coconut Shop Resort on my motorbike.
Couples or groups: You can arrange a Paid-Taxi from Coconut Shop Resort to HyperLu for 200 baht (Must be arranged at least 3 hours in advance).
